Anybody have any experience at this? Here's the background: I just purchased a 20 acre parcel in central MD, part of our family farm, has a stream running through part of it, want to plow up a garden area, that area is in bottom land, near a stream, was thinking that since the water table is near surface, just take a post hole auger mounted on my skid steer, drill a hole down 5-10 feet, through the green clay layer, and would be able to have an artesian well, as the hills around this parcel were all gravel that was mined down in the 70's, I know there is a perched water aquifer near the surface, springs here and there, some fields were tiled for better drainage.
Any suggestions on pumps, anybody seen a 12 volt DC jet well pump, or would a tractor powered do better for irrigation?
